Oil cooler upgrade?

[MTGTS]

Has anyone upgraded there oil cooler? Anyone know who made the GTS-R ones? I have the measurements off one just wondering if anyone knew who made them. I can get a custom one made but that's prob expensive. Just looking for other options first.

Fluidyne made some of the oil coolers that the GTSR's used. They were used along with a shorter version of the Fluidyne radiator. However, a better alternative for your GTS is a Setrab oil cooler. We use them on our GTS race cars and have had great luck with them. They come in a huge assortment of sizes so finding one that will fit our GTS's is easy to do. http://www.setrab.com/
Good luck.

BTW MT, I've asked the guy who put the motor in the car to document all that he remembers from the G3 manifold install for you. Stay tuned.

I talked with the owner of Fluidyne for a little bit today. He knows they made the radiators for the GTS-R's and recently had one in for service. He doesn't remember making the oil coolers but he said he could have made a couple of them. He doesn't have the specs on them still though That being said they have a current cooler that are almost the exact dimensions of the GTS-R cooler and should fit. It needs to be modified to have the oil return come back on the same side the inlet is. He said the total cost should be about $500 which I didn't think was to bad considering they want $500 for a factory one. I will give Setrab a call tomorrow as I have heard good things about them as well.

MTGTS-this is similar to the cooler that we run. Cclose to factory sizing with both lines coming out the passenger side.

I called them today. Cooler and fittings are about $600 + shipping. I think I might go with the custom built Fluidyne as it's $100 cheaper and 1" thicker. Didn't think a custom one would be cheaper that a one that is normally produced
